Saints make history

The St. Stephen’s and St. Agnes Saints made history earlier this month, clinching the private school’s first Tip-off Tournament championship title.

Led by sophomore guard Kendall Taylor and junior forward Dyhamond Crenshaw, the Saints narrowly snuck by backyard rival Bishop Ireton and Norfolk Academy to secure the tournament title last weekend.
